United Natural Foods Cyberattack Cuts Q4 Earnings, Operations Restored

United Natural Foods Inc. (UNFI), the largest supplier to Whole Foods, experienced a cyberattack in early June 2025 that disrupted its operations, causing reduced sales volume and increased operational costs. The company took systems offline to contain the unauthorized activity but has since restored core systems essential for electronic ordering and invoicing, allowing business operations to normalize and product distribution to resume. UNFI reported that no personal or protected health information was compromised, thus avoiding consumer notifications. The cyberattack is expected to materially impact UNFI's net income and adjusted EBITDA for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025, but the company believes it will not affect its overall financial condition or longer-term strategic goals. UNFI anticipates its cybersecurity insurance will cover the costs related to the incident, although the claims process may continue into fiscal 2026. The company plans to provide a financial update in July reflecting the incident's impact, and despite short-term challenges, analysts currently maintain a hold rating on the stock with an average price target suggesting potential upside from current levels.
